Covenant VS Metasploit

Covenant C2: https://github.com/cobbr/Covenant

E.g., https://github.com/cobbr/Covenant/blob/master/Covenant/Data/Grunt/GruntHTTP/GruntHTTP.cs

And I have then installed Covenant as per the instructions here: https://github.com/cobbr/Covenant/wiki/Installation-And-Startup

https://github.com/cobbr/Covenant https://bloodhoundgang.herokuapp.com/ https://github.com/cobbr/Covenant/wiki

1. Learn to build things

2. Learn to hack them

3. Build tools to hack things (or learn existing ones, e.g. https://github.com/GhostPack and https://github.com/cobbr/Covenant for you .NET folks)

Going from business apps to tools offers a nice change of pace.

Thanks I will give the README a read https://github.com/cobbr/Covenant

an implementation is here - Covenant Implant Template, which uses Domain Borrowing for C2 communication. https://github.com/Dliv3/DomainBorrowing

Metasploit

Metasploit: https://github.com/rapid7/metasploit-framework

1-) Learn Hacking on a debian based distro like Kali Linux - I personally started with tools like nikto, camhacker... and then moved to more complex frameworks like metasploit.

I once had to give a presentation about Metasploit, and whether it was ethically correct for the creator to make it free and open-source, available to everyone. And in researching this I realized that there were a lot of parallels between the arguments for or against hacking tools being readily available and the arguments for or against gun control. I'll just list a few quickly:

Metasploit Framework (mentioned earlier)

This phase is where the pen testers practically prove that there exist potential vulnerabilities in the target system. The pen testers do the hacking using an array of technical approaches and social engineering methods to exploit the vulnerabilities. The ethical hackers commonly use Metasploit framework to automatically execute exploitation against the target systems. Moreover, they may install malwares such as rootkit to persistently maintain their foothold and further compromise the target system.
